An investigative study for the prediction of compressive strength of cement-clay interlocking (CCI) hollow brick masonry walls

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials, 2022
Masonry structures are used in many parts of the world because of their varying benefits of being low-cost, heat insulations, local availability, and skilled labor.

Non-linear approaches to the response of brick masonry wall to lateral loading [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The response of brick masonry wall subjected to lateral loading is presented in this paper. Modelling and analysis of masonry seems to be complicated due to two-component material with different properties and dimensions.

The Failure of Masonry Walls by Disaggregation and the Masonry Quality Index

open access: yesHeritage, 2020
The visual method for assessment of the structural behaviour of historic masonry walls, known by the acronym MQI (Masonry Quality Index) was introduced in 2002 by a team of researchers from the University of Perugia, Italy.

Understanding and controlling the ingress of driven rain through exposed, solid wall masonry structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Long term performance of historic buildings can be affected by many environmental factors, some of which become more apparent as the competence of the fabric deteriorates.

Study on the enhancement coefficient of the local compressive strength improvement of masonry under a cantilever beam

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials, 2019
Locally compressed masonry under a cantilever beam is restrained by the surrounding masonry, resulting in improved local compressive strength. The code for design of masonry structures stipulates that the enhancement coefficients of the local compressive

Experimental investigation on interlocking concrete block for masonry wall of non-engineered earthquake resistant buildings [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2020
Most of the seismic damage of existing traditional buildings is due to the absence of practical beam and column structures as the main reinforcement of the building.

The effect of masonry infill walls on the reinforced concrete frames behavior under lateral load [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The reinforced concrete structures with masonry infill walls are widely used to construct buildings in Algeria, as in many parts of the world. According to earthquake analysis, this type of construction can undergo serious damage under seismic load.

Development of a nonlinear macro element for URM walls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Masonry is a widespread method of construction to this day and has proven particularly successful in the construction of office and residential buildings. This is mainly due to the fact that masonry has physical advantages over reinforced concrete.

Evaluation of the seismic performance of masonry walls reinforced with wooden elements [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2018
Despite the large numbers of masonry buildings in the country, limited researches are conducted to analyze their seismic responses. Evidence suggests that unreinforced masonry buildings in destructive earthquakes are sentenced to destruction.
